Dozens of dogs, cats and other pets are seeking new owners after Pahrump's only animal shelter, Tails End, closes Tuesday.

Tails End, an animal welfare organization, opened 15 months ago under the supervision of Nye County and with $140,000 in funding. Susan Cronin, director, and her team of mostly volunteer staff worked to keep the shelter going, bringing their own supplies and working six days a week.
